Context Awareness in Mobile Phone Based Applications Using Bluetooth
(Trinity College Dublin. Department of Computer Science, 2005-09)Mobile phones have become the communication medium of choice. They have evolved into a multifaceted device capable of data services and multimedia applications in addition to their voice capabilities. Mobile phone ... -
CORBA based Middleware for Cooperating Mobile Robots
(Trinity College Dublin. Department of Computer Science, 2000-09)An embedded system is an autonomous information processing system that determines or controls to a large extent the behaviour of a larger system. The proliferation of embedded systems applications is increasing daily, ... -
Corba Middleware for a Palm Operating System
(Trinity College Dublin. Department of Computer Science, 2001-09)Typically, Computer Networks are heterogeneous and therefore require special middleware applications in order to enable communication across their diverse platforms. Middleware applications make the task of writing ... -
Courseware on the Fly
(Trinity College Dublin. Department of Computer Science, 1998-09)Third level education is at the moment experiencing a period of rapid change. Innovative teaching methods, in which new technology will figure, are required to enable universities maintain a high standard of education ... -
Cryptographic Access Control for a Network File System
(2001-09)The rapid growth of mobile computing and the deployment of large distributed systems which span multiple administrative domains has created new challenges for security systems. Changing usage patterns and the physical ... -
CryptosFS: Fast Cryptographic Secure NFS
(Trinity College Dublin. Department of Computer Science, 2000-09)The issue of security in file-systems is as relevant today as when the first file system was developed. Current file system implementations rely heavily on centralised security mechanisms such as access control lists. ... -
Data Exchange in a Component Based Workflow Environment
(Trinity College Dublin. Department of Computer Science, 1999-09)There is a need to revise existing (successful) software subsystems. One can?t afford to develop a bespoke system, as done previously, so therefore `shrink wrapped solution sets? have to be realised. The problem is how ... -
Database Sampling to Support the Development of Data-Intensive Applications
(University of Dublin, Trinity College. Department of Computer Science, 2000-10)A prototype database is a model of a database which exhibits the desired properties, in terms of its schema and/or data values, of an operational database. Database prototyping has been proposed as a technique to support ... -
The Decentralised Coordination of Self-Adaptive Components
(University of Dublin, Trinity College. Department of Computer Science, 2004-10)Distributed computing systems are moving towards increasingly autonomous operation and management, in which their interacting components can organise, regulate, repair and optimise themselves without human intervention. ... -
Decentralized Authorization for Web Services
(Trinity College Dublin. Department of Computer Science, 2005-09)Web Services is an area that encountered a very sudden and huge explosion on its popularity during the latest years. The advantages Web Services provide compared to traditional distributed computing methods such as Remote ... -
Design and Initial Implementation of a Distributed XML Database
(Trinity College Dublin. Department of Computer Science, 2005-09)Techniques for distributed relational database systems have been well researched and developed. This is unsurprising given that the relational database model itself has been in development since the early 1970s. In recent ... -
Development And Evaluation Of A Scalable, Fault Tolerant Telecommunications System Using EJB And Related Technologies
(Trinity College Dublin. Department of Computer Science, 2001-09)The objective of the research project is to investigate how Sun's Enterprise Java Bean technology (EJB) and Java 2 Enterprise Edition (J2EE) could be used to produce a prototype Short Message Service Centre (SMSC) which ... -
Digital Rights Enforcement for Pervasive Computing Applications
(Trinity College Dublin. Department of Computer Science, 2005-03)Increasingly, application software is expanding from the desktop into mobile application environments, such as handset devices and embedded systems which are more limited in resources and volatile in their network ... -
Direction Based Routing for Mobile Ad Hoc Networks
(Trinity College Dublin. Department of Computer Science, 2001-09)A Mobile Ad Hoc Network is comprised of nodes with wireless interfaces that are able to move arbitrarily, changing the network topology as they do so. Designing a routing protocol for such a network, where connections can ... -
Directory Enabled Smart Spaces
(Trinity College Dublin. Department of Computer Science, 2002-09)Significant research and development in the area of system management has been carried out over the last number of years. This research has led to a number of proven technologies that are currently being used to manage ... -
A Distributed Event System for Use in Mobile Environments
(Trinity College Dublin. Department of Computer Science, 1999-09)Recent research into the automation of certain tasks within buildings has been shown to provide a better working environment and also has the potential to make buildings more responsive to the needs of the community at ... -
Distributed Multi-User Urban Simulation
(Trinity College Dublin. Department of Computer Science, 2001-09)The objective of the research project is the importation, representation and 3D navigation of a large-scale city model. The model will be the backbone for the construction of the proposed Virtual Dublin project. The ... -
Distributed Slide Show Tool
(Trinity College Dublin. Department of Computer Science, 2002-09)The growing use of the Internet has increased connectivity and allowed users to communicate in a more interactive manner. This had lead to a growing use of ELearning and Collaborative tools. But one of the biggest ... -
Dublin Bus Tracking Service: Design and implementation of a device independent passenger information system
(Trinity College Dublin. Department of Computer Science, 2000-09)Traditionally public transport has been perceived as the less desirable alternative to the car. The environmental argument of using public transport has not led to a significant increase in the usage of public transport. ... -
An Evaluation of AOP for Java-based Real-time Systems Development
(Trinity College Dublin. Department of Computer Science, 2003-09)Advances in programming language have improved the software developer?s ability to achieve separation of concerns (SOC). Although object-oriented (OO) technology offers greater ability than previous language paradigms ...
